Netball Fun League matches are made of up three thirds – all 13 minutes in length with a 1 minute break in between for refreshments etc

First of all you will need to create a “Personal Player Profile” you can do this by clicking this link here: https://tinyurl.com/wpru2hp4 then our Netball Development person “Charlotte” will get back in touch with you as soon as she can. You can also chat to her via Whastapp 07305 24043

Step 1:

One of you will need to create a “Personal Player Profile” you can do this by clicking this link here: https://tinyurl.com/wpru2hp4 then follow up with an email to our Netball Development person “Charlotte” Click Here to launch your email to inform her of your wish to enter a team.

Please Note:

If you’re a team that hasn’t played with Netball Fun League before — or is a brand new team, where more than 3 members do not have Netball Fun League Personal Player Ratings — we will need to assess your team’s playing standard before placing in a league. This helps us make sure you’re matched with teams of a similar level, so everyone enjoys competitive and fair games.

Step 2:

  • We will arrange a friendly match for your team so we can get a sense of your standard.
  • After the match, we’ll recommend a suitable division and let you know how to register for the upcoming season.

We have leagues running in Cheltenham, Cirencester, Evesham, Gloucester, Stroud and Stonehouse. All of our leagues are “Divisionalised” from beginner to advanced standard. Division 2 being the highest and Back2Netball being the beginner standard and with other standards in between. We will always endeavour to place a team or individuals in the correct level to suit.

Typically our Seasons are 21-24 weeks long, this sometimes does vary depending on number of teams/venue availability etc. Sometimes there is no break between seasons, or if there is then usually only a week.

A Team DOES NOT have to pay for a full season upfront!

Each new season there is a Team Registration Fee of £24.50. Team Match Fee is £35. Umpire Fee is £10 per match. The Match Fee is collected automatically from the Team Account Holder after a match, the Umpire Fee is cash only and paid directly to an Umpire at your match.

These do vary by venue/league (due to court availability) but they mostly start from 6:30pm and last matches at 9:20pm – matches are not the same time every week as match times are rotated within the league, example, one week your match time would be 6:40pm, the next week it could be 7:20pm etc.

During our Autumn/Winter Season matches are indoors, however in Spring/Summer (because of school exams) some matches will be played outdoors… however… rain does NOT necessarily mean STOP PLAY. We have a “Outdoor Weather/Match Cancellation” policy, you can read it here: https://tinyurl.com/4kzp6df6

There is no maximum age, that would depend on how fit/able you are (we do have a lady playing who is in her early 70’s!!!)

Minimum age for an individual to play in a team is 14, and all players under the age of 18 must first be approved by Netball Fun League Head Office and must have a Parent or Guardian complete our online Parental Consent Form before being able to play any matches or join our skill sessions. To request access to the form, please click this link: https://tinyurl.com/ydeaz8fb for our Contact Form – choose Under 18 Player Participation as the subject from the dropdown and leave your message. A member of the team will be in touch asap.

We take the safety and wellbeing of all our players seriously, and this process ensures we have the correct information and permissions in place for our younger participants.

It really doesn’t matter how long it’s been or how fit/unfit you are 🙂 you could start off by joining one of our popular Back2Netball Sessions and go back to basics. Our qualified coaches deliver fun and friendly sessions that will build your skills…. and if you get the netball bug (and people really do) Charlotte will get you playing in a team/league to suit you! Check out our current Back2Netball Sessions by clicking this link: https://tinyurl.com/yeysua7w

We do have guidelines for these subjects – players must be “Match Ready” before entering the court – check out these guidelines by clicking here: https://tinyurl.com/yc7u93fw

Yes, we have League Winners T-Shirts and League Runners Up Medals. We also have Player of the Season Awards for 1 player per team in every league. During a season our Umpires will nominate a Player of the Match for a game and enter this along with the match results. At the end of the season these nominations are totalled up, should there be a tie, the Team Organiser/Team or even Umpires will decide an overall winner. You can see a lot of images of our prizes down the years by visiting our Instagram Account here: www.instagram.com/theonlynetballfunleague 🙂
